Gamer Centric Design

Designed for gamers, styled for beauty

Show the world you're serious about gaming with the instantly-recognizable style of G550. Its precision gaming controls, adjustable-backlight keyboard, majestic red design touches and gorgeous spun-metal finish touchpad are all designed to make G550 a gamer's dream machine.

IPS displays for stunning visuals

With its ultra-crisp IPS screens, the G550 has outstanding visuals with enhanced color definition, brightness, and contrast. Going up to Full HD resolution, these have an anti-reflection matte coating that also repels fingerprints, making it easy to keep clean and bright. As well as excellent color accuracy and lifelike visuals, the screens on G550 have 178-degree viewing angles, so colors and clarity remain consistent from nearly any direction.

Ultra-responsive one-piece illuminated chiclet keyboard

With its long-travel keys for instant response, the seamless one-piece keyboard is a joy to use, even for extended sessions. Users can adjust the brightness of the majestic red backlight at any time for maximum visibility, making it easy to use G550 anywhere, any time.

New generation at heart

G550 leverages the advanced technology and power offered by 4th generation Intel® Core™ i7 processors, which far outpace previous-generation performance. Smart technologies embedded in the new processors lead to extra short boot times, reduced load waits, and a host of other great features that culminate in a vastly improved user experience.

Awe-inspiring 3D performance — over 5,500 3DMark 11 performance!

With NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX850M discrete GPUs, G550 is an awesome performer. G550 is indisputably gamer-grade and enthusiast-approved. These far outpace the previous-generation, making them the ideal choice for G550.

ASUS TurboMaster for ultimate graphics performance

ASUS TurboMaster technology, which includes ROG-exclusive GPU Tweak software and upgraded component design, gives you the ultimate gaming experience. It supports real-time overclocking — over 5% — for the G550's discrete NVIDIA® GTX 800 Series GPUs. It is specially designed for simple and safe overclocking, even for long periods, giving you the gaming edge when it matters.

Incredibly powerful, and incredibly cool

Heat is the serious gamer's worst enemy, as it can cause unreliability and performance degradation — but not in the G550. It features large-scale cooling with dual fans, twin heatpipes, and big vents that keep temperatures low even during the most intense action for guaranteed stability.

High performance storage

Solid state storage on G550 accelerates data access, resulting in a faster and more responsive system. SSDs are also more reliable and longer-lasting than mechanical hard drives, and by installing the operating system on solid state, G550 shortens annoying game loading times.

Majestic Sound

Spectacle of sound

Where many gaming notebooks treat sound as an afterthought, G550 puts it front and center. It features exclusive ASUS SonicMaster and ROG AudioWizard, designed by a dedicated team of audio engineers as a careful balance of hardware and software towards the best notebook sound.

Mastering audio for games and more

Developed by the ASUS Golden Ear team, exclusive SonicMaster sound technology was created with the clear goal of achieving the best sound on notebook PC. In that, it's been a resounding success, and keeps getting better. SonicMaster comprises bigger speakers and larger resonance chambers to deliver more powerful sound and deeper bass. It also uses software fine-tuning of audio output, adapting to diverse applications and usage types. Whatever your sound, SonicMaster on G550 will make it better, richer, and more detailed – whether you prefer listening on headphones or speakers.

These can then be activated at any time for use in any application. ROG AudioWizard also includes five preset audio modes specially optimized for different game and entertainment genres.

Now with MaxxAudio

Professional MaxxAudio sound processing tools infuse G550 with another layer of cool sonic detail. The intuitive and friendly MaxxAudio interface helps you take charge of what your G550 sounds like, with flexible settings for different needs. You could also opt to use one of five audio modes based on content or application. In all cases, tuning sound is quick, easy, and fun.

Lined up for better voice

G550 holds the secret to superb voice quality when talking to other people online. It's an array microphone that far exceeds the performance of generic single-microphone designs. This is vital when communicating with teammates during multiplayer engagements, but is just as great to have for chatting and doing VoIP with family and friends. The microphones are designed to filter out ambient noise, which means that even if you're at a LAN party or some other loud event, your voice still carries true. So speak up and don't hold back!

ASUS cloud services provide the most complete platform for online living that's accessible anywhere from a host of devices. With ASUS WebStorage, convenience is the main priority, offering you easy storage, sharing, and syncing of everything from business presentations to photo albums and favorite multimedia content. Each ASUS ROG G550 comes with free WebStorage space so you can easily sync your content to multiple devices and accounts simultaneously.
